We're triggered!
During yesterday's appointment I had one of the nurses draw an X where I needed to get my trigger shot.
My husband did a fantastic job of hitting exactly where he needed to with as little pain for me as possible. (I know he hit exactly where he needed to because of the one drop of blood that collected after the shot). ; )
While the shot was relatively painless....it was still pretty scary seeing my husband go from handling a Lupron needle (shown below on left) to handling a 23 gauge (shown below on right)...
And while the trigger shot was what I was most worried about...it turned out the last Lupron shot had it in for me.....
I noticed the shot stung a bit more than usual and didn't think anything of it....
until a small bruise started forming....
and then that bruise turned black today (which apparently happens to plenty of women so it's not a concern, just a pain).
Ah IVF......thou art thou heartless bitch. ; )
So I hope to be alert and well enough to update everyone tomorrow after egg retrieval...but lets be honest...I'll be drugged....so you may not get an update for a few days. ; )
Until then my friends!
